The Market. 



It i> lalliiT too curly to he able to j^o 

 into ilctails alidiii tht" Cliristmas trade, 

 I ml we i-an .say liiat it certainly was 

 yodil with everyone. 



i\'osi's wi're e.\('ee(liii<ily scarce. What 

 tiiere -weic on tlie market brouglit ^ood 

 Ibices for this city, aliout $15 per hun- 

 <lred lor the best. Carnation.s arrived in 

 larger quantities at the last nionient 

 thau was at lirst, expect ed, but still not 

 • ■nough to meet the demand. The stock 

 was good an<l ranged in ]irice from $.j to 

 .+S per hundred. I'oinsettias went well 

 at from j/f'.', to $;>..")i) jter dozen, wholesale. 

 The grade of the.se beautiful flowers 

 varies much. Some are grown right and 

 keej) remarkably well, while others look 

 like a dishrag on a busy day. 



Many eastern violets are handled in 

 |)('troit. as well as many singles and some 

 tVw doubles grown in this vicinity. The 

 jirice for Christmas was .ti'.oO jx'r hun- 

 died for either variety. Valley i.s jtrov- 

 ing a good substitute for violets, and 

 many thousands were sold. The price 

 was .t4 to $.1 jier hundred. Many orchids 

 were also sold. Narcissi, daffodils, Ro- 

 mans, sweet peas and a few stray mums 

 completed the stock. Smilax is jdenti- 

 tid. 



Club Meeting. 



The la.st meeting of the (dub was well 

 attended considering tiie busy times. The 

 paper by Robert Flowerday having been 

 po,stponed until January, there was little 

 done. I'liilip Hreitmeyer held the floor 

 for some time, giving a talk on Christ - 

 ma.s ))reparations. He spoke mainly of 

 the importance of keeping up prices. 



.lanuary 2 will be "Christmas trade 

 discussion. ' '
